Booked this place as the last night of our Colorado trip. Pics of the "Standard Room, 1 King Bed (Newly remodeled)" looked OK. $160 is steep (staying at The Conrad in Vegas next week for the same price), but I figured it would be better than average for Durango for that price.Definitely do more of a deep dive into this motel that I did before booking.
No one at the front counter for check in. Took a few minutes for a guy to make it up front to get us keys. Not the warmest reception.
Total dump. Room we received looks nothing like the pictures. It looks, and smells, like a partially finished basement, if there were basements in trailer parks. Furniture is 40 years old and very tired.
Nasty industrial carpet, cheap fixtures, nothing matches. Decorated with junk from a 1983 garage sale. I especially like the vintage inner spring bed that bounced like you're on the moon, and the $40 contractor spec vanity in the bathroom with a faucet missing an aerator so it shoots water all over your pants when you turn it on.
No amenities. Appears to have had a hot tub at one time, which had been converted into a play pen and storage locker.
Nightmare parking, steep slope, tight turns and difficult access for trucks.
Definitely ripped off. At $40 a night, this place would have been fine. At $70 a night, it would be a stretch. At $160 a night, this is a total scam. Would have been better off sleeping in the back of our truck down the road at the excellent United Campground.
